The Adventure of Byron and Jacobis -- Kendall Daddo and his children invite you to join them as they drive down the highway on a short road trip to spend the afternoon with Grandpa. During the drive, Kendall, as usual, seizes the opportunity to pass the time by telling the children a story. Join them as they break through the confines of minivan space and enter the world of an adventurous boy, named Byron, and an interesting little man, named Jacobis, whom Byron met one day while enjoying the company of one of his dearest friends, Old Oaken, a magnificent mature oak tree that is neatly tucked away at the edge of a clearing in the middle of the woods that grow just a short bike ride outside of Byron's town.

In 1980, I went to California, wanting to meet Macdonald (and secretly hoping he would take me under his wing). Things did not quite work out that way, as you'll read in this memoir, written three years later when he died of Alzheimer's disease.
